JMO, but can I compare this to John Brown and Lincoln? I think it would be useful since slavery is pretty uniformly condemned but that doesn't mean everyone who was against it was an angel in disguise.
It's a good example because it's looking at things most of us can consider without personal interest, but you've assumed a greater knowledge of American history than is likely to be found in the non- American portion of the list. Could you give a bit more background detail on John Brown, please? I didn't know anything about him.
